[Tutor] Threads & Memory

[FxItAL@aol.com]

Hello All,

I've written a small timer program that uses two threads to display the 
current time and continuously compares the actual time to the time set for 
the alarm. 

While running this program it seems to slow down any other applications that 
I'm running at the time.

I don't know if this makes a differance but I have not compiled this into a 
stand alone as yet. 

If this is a memory managment issue please elaborate in detail as I'm new to 
programming in general.

Python 1.5.2 on Windows 95 on a 233 processor with 64 Mgs of RAM.

Thanks for your time, Al
